La Guerra del francès a Lleida (1808-1814)

Este estudio histórico está dedicado a analizar la ocupación del territorio ilerdense por las tropas francesas, la repercusión y la reacción negativa que provocó en la población de Lleida, sobre todo se hará hincapié en el “Motín del Femeret”, un intento de subversión del poder fáctico tradicional por parte de una muchedumbre enfurecida ante la indolencia de las autoridades locales. También se examinará la organización de la resistencia interior de la ciudad para evitar ser conquistada, su asedio ulterior por parte de los soldados galos, la posterior conquista de Lleida por el ejército napoleónico en el año 1810 y la brutal represión que ejercieron sobre sus habitantes, causando notables daños tanto materiales como personales. Asimismo se hará referencia al gobierno francés del barón Henriod (1810-1812) como también al mandato de Alban de Villeneuve (1812-1814). Además se expondrá la reconquista a principios del año 1814 y finalmente se hará referencia a las consecuencias demográficas, económicas y sociales que produjo la Guerra de la Independencia en la ciudad de Lleida.

Northern Landscapes : ʻʻImplementation of the European Landscape Convention In the North Calotte Area Municipalitiesʼʼ - Conference in Inari, Finland 7-9.9.2011

The conference promoting the objectives of the international European Landscape Convention (ELC) was held on 7-9 September 2011 in Inari. The primary aim of the conference was to increase awareness of the ELC and the prospects and requirements it brings to practical planning work, especially at the municipal level. The conference speakers included top experts from Sweden, Norway, Finland, France, Holland and Catalonia. This report is a collection of articles written by the experts in the ELC conference. The report is available in five languages: Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian, Northern Sámi and English. The common characteristics of the North Calotte area, such as the magnificent riverside scenery and the beautiful fell landscapes formed by the Sámi culture and reindeer management are broadly reflected in the environment. Alongside the traditional forms of land use, many other livelihoods and forms of land use now need to be accommodated in the area. Tourism, energy production, mining industry and new infrastructure create new and manifold challenges to the authorities in charge of land use in these areas. Municipalities need information and support for versatile planning in the future, so that the unique and valuable characteristics of the North can be preserved. Landscape protection and management in the landscape areas is executed through areal and land use planning, mainly through town planning and the creation of landscape management plans. The municipalities in the North Calotte region have their own partly divergent methods and practices, based on the various land use processes are executed. The municipalities and inhabitants have a great interest in preserving and protecting their living environment and maintaining and increasing the appeal of the area. Landscape is viewed as one of the most significant appealing factors that cannot be lost. The increasing land use in municipalities, for example due to energy production, mining industry and increasing tourism, create a need for more multidimensional planning. The reconciliation of the wishes of different interest groups, and traditional and new livelihoods will not be easy. Conflict is inevitable. This will lead to a greater need to engage local bodies to the planning processes right from the start of the projects. Close cooperation between different administrative branches, operators, local bodies and landscape research promote the objectives of the convention. To ensure that the work continues, a landscape co-operation group is planned to be established in the North Calotte area. It´s main task is to promote and develop landscape policy in the area.
